Teddy Bear Program

Bears for Kids

The Plano Police Department receives new Teddy Bears donated by citizens and businesses. The Teddy Bears are kept in police cars, and when an officer encounters a child who has been traumatized due to tragedy or victimization, the child is given a bear. The child is comforted by the bear in an unfortunate or unfamiliar surrounding.

For more information on this program, or how you can donate a Teddy Bear, please contact the Crime Prevention Unit at 972-941-2431.
